Blow Hard Dan - Re: 'Intel seems to be backing away from the P4/Foster architecture. "

You ain't keeping up with the news:

Message 15407487

c't confirms that Foster will have SMT:
heise.de

"The Pentium 4 server version, know under its codename Foster, will be available as both a single version (DP) and several logical processors on a die (MP). Intel calls this feature 'Jackson Technology', and there is already a flag reserved in the CPU feature Register (bit 28, but this is still secret, as well that the CPUID-Command in EBX [23..16] will contain the number of logical processors. Of course Intel will give the technology with the meaningless codename Jackson technoloy a handy new name comparable to 'NetBurst' or 'Rapid Execution Engine'.
